Hey there... starting now, please disregard the previous thread and post ALL your 1909-1939 Lincoln cent finds here. This is for "true finds" only - coins found in change, rolls, or bags at face value only (not from wheat purchases).

when I crack rolls four $25 boxes of tight-wrapped cents turns into five $20 boxes of loose ready-to-ryedale pennies. I like to prepare zincs a hundred dollars at a time (that's about how much the box holds)... so, with the percentage I find in California (16-18%) I pretty much figure it'll take six boxes ($120) to produce $100 of zincs for return. I don't keep exact track of the copper percent, but it seems to be fairly close. Dat's da story! And I report finds AND skunks as that way it's easy to keep track of how long it's been since the previous Indian.

1909's are accurate to this point, coordinated with the "1909 CLUB" thread which is here:You must be logged in to see this link.I'll update the rest in the next few days. In the meantime, everyone else out there, cmon back! Second verse, same as the first!
